Rivian R1T Winter Range Test via insideevs.com
Electric vehicles do a lot of things really well, and often better than their combustion counterparts. However, cold weather performance isn't one of them, as EV batteries aren't capable of delivering the same driving range as they do when they are warmer.I did with my Ford F-150 Lightning when I drove from my home in northern New Jersey to my in-law's home in southern Vermont.
Conserve driving mode decouples the rear motors and turns the R1T into a front-wheel-drive vehicle and it's the most efficient driving mode. However, Rivian warns against over-using Conserve mode because it puts too much strain on the front motors, so it's not the right driving mode for all of your driving. Just use it on long trips when you need the extra efficiency and you'll be fine.
When we pulled into my in-law's driveway three hours and fifty minutes after we started out, the R1T still had 8% state of charge remaining and our average consumption for the trip was 1.83 mi/kWh. The R1T finished the head-to-head cold weather range test besting the F-150 Lightning by 5% state of charge.
